Cake Believe

Friday, November 22, 2013

As we are approaching the end of 2013 and looking forward to
the new year I have news I would like to share with you all.

Beginning January 2014, Cake Believe will be taking a
hiatus.

First and foremost, I would like to thank all of my wonderful
clients who return to me each and every year to help celebrate those special
moments in their lives.I would not be
the cake artist I am today if it weren’t for your faith in me.Many of you I consider friends and I love
seeing your kids as they grow, helping welcome babies to your families and being
a part of celebrating the loving moments of weddings and anniversaries.I am so grateful you have chosen my art to be
a part of your special days.Business
has really grown beyond the work of one person and I have spent many months
considering this change.

The things I am
looking forward to:1) SLEEP!Most weekends I operate on very
few hours of sleep and lots of caffeine (I never thought I would still be
pulling all-nighters so many years after college!)! 2) Family time on the weekends. 3) A kitchen
that isn’t covered in SUGAR! ;)

Things I will miss: 1) Meeting new people and seeing
familiar friendly faces. 2) The great smiles and looks of wonder as someone first
sets eyes on their cake!That has been the
priceless gifts I have received when delivering cakes.

When I started this venture it was to give birthday cakes to
my own children that were homemade with love only the way a mother can
make.As a hobbyist caker, I have put so
much of myself into each and every cake, whether for my child or someone
elses.I have grown tremendously as a
baker, cake artist and as a mother.Recently
I found as I was sorting through my pictures of the last few years, they are
mostly cakes/cookies and the like and very few of my own kids and family time.As we sometimes get reminded in life, each
moment we have together is a gift AND kids grow up WAY TOO FAST.I want to be able to spend more time with my
family before the kids are leading their separate lives and moving on and up in
the world.

So while I have loved every moment of creating special cakes
and goodies to help other families celebrate, this hiatus will allow me to
spend everyday moments (especially weekends) with my family.I can’t wait to see what my photo downloads
are going to contain.

I don’t know what the future holds and when or if Cake
Believe will begin operating again.But
I thank you all for your faith and support of my business.I love you all!

About Me

I like to bake and design fun and interesting cakes. I get inspiration from so many places...other cake artists, textiles, art...pretty much anywhere! Cake is more than just flour and sugar to me. It's a chance to give someone a treat they never expected, something personal to them. Sometimes the story behind a cake is better than the cake itself. Thanks for looking!
